​Inmate Calls

The Department of Corrections (DOC) encourages and supports families and friends to stay in contact with incarcerated individuals. Phone calls are frequently used to do so. The DOC is not responsible for creating phone accounts. All accounts are created by Securus. Any questions about phone accounts should be directed to Securus.

Suicide Prevention

Suicide prevention is a major priority at DOC. DOC recently added a message to all inmate phone calls about this priority. The message will say: "If you have any concern that the person you are speaking with is in a mental health crisis or is suicidal, please call the state correctional institution immediately." Please do not be alarmed when you hear this message. It is a way for DOC to share suicide prevention information. To read the potential signs and symptoms of suicide, please select the Suicide Prevention ribbon.
